Use Speed and Power Support Cards

Speed Deck

Speed is the most important stat in Umamusume, so consider equipping 2-3 Speed Support Cards. Use Power Support Cards as well, to help boost your Power training since it is an important stat for Late Surgers.

All Support Cards

Invest on Power After Speed

Late Surger Training
Speed > Power > Stamina

Late Surgers both require a balanced distribution for Speed and Power, as you will need the latter in order to overtake other runners later in the race.

Get Maneuverability and Late Surger Skills

Late Surger Skills

Focus on getting Maneuverability and Late Surger skills during training so your Umamusume will have a high chance getting into a good position during the race and for them to overtake other runners easily.
